Dúbravka was already overcome by Mohamed Salah in the 3rd minute, but the Slovak national team was the support of his team during the rest of the match. In the second half, he excelled at the chances of Salah, Sadio Mane and James Milner, and the “magpies” managed to equalize in the dramatic ending. At the set time, the referee, after consulting the VAR, did not recognize Callum Wilson’s intervention for the alleged hand, but in the end, the substitute Joseph Willock pushed himself to the post.
“The point from Anfield is of great value to us. After a quick goal, we tried to be dangerous in the attack and create chances. An unrecognized goal made us feel frustrated, but we didn’t lay down our arms and finally won a draw. Our desire bore fruit.” Dúbravka stated in an interview for Newcastle club television, which scored for the fourth time in a row.
Liverpool scored the second tie in a row and is sixth in the table with a four-point loss to fourth place guaranteeing participation in the Champions League. “Currently we are not showing performances that would earn us a place in the Champions League. There are still five matches left until the end of the season. Either we learn from the mistakes and add gas, or there will be the most prestigious club competition without us,” stressed Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp.
FC Chelsea won the London derby at West Ham United Stadium 1-0. The only goal was scored at the end of the first half by Timo Werner. Chelsea has a three-point lead over his opponent thanks to a triumph in an important battle for participation in LM in the fourth position. “As of Tuesday, not a word has been said in the cabin about our withdrawal from the planned project of the European Superliga. Everyone is fully focused on the match with West Ham, which they managed for the unit,” praised Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel.
West Antonio missed Miss Antonio, Declan Rice and Aaron Cresswell for injuries. The efforts of the “hammers” to equalize in the 81st minute were slowed down by the strict exclusion of the Paraguayan tracker Fabien Balbuen after the VAR decision. “It was a nonsensical verdict of someone who apparently never played football,” West Ham helmsman David Moyes shouted.
